Claes Johnson on Mathematics and Science: Need of Education in ...

Images des Math issued by CNRS reports on a proposal by?L'Academie des Sciences to strengthen school education in Information Science and Technology (IT), and expresses the concern that while ?the proposal identifies the strong impact of IT in physics, chemistry, biology, economy and social sciences, the connection between IT and mathematics is less visible.

The reason L'Academie des Sciences forgets the fundamental connection between mathematics and IT, is that school mathematics is focussed on a tradition of analytical mathematics, where the IT-revolution of computational mathematics is not visible.

This connects to my proposal of a reform of school mathematics into a new school subject named Mathematics - IT combining analytical and computational mathematics with the world of apps as the world of applications of mathematics using IT.?? ? ?
